Passing SharePoint Choice Column Data to Email Body

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 2
I have been mud wrestling with copilot all day trying to solve this issue, with no success.

I have created an Approval flow.

Everything works except the data that needs to be displayed in the email body that represents 'Expense Account'.

Expense Account is a choice column in the SP List.



My 'Start and Wait...' action looks like the following. I have the following in the Details,
but the data is blank in the email.

I have a Class field, also choice, that data comes through just fine. When I try to reference
triggerOutputs()?['body/Expense_Account/Value'], which is how the Class field (also choice)
is written, nothing comes through for Expense Account. 

I have tried
item()?['Expense_Account']
item()?['body/Expense_Account/Value']


What am I missing?

    I figured it out.

    I needed to add a Select and a Compose to translate the multi-choice column through the flow.
